Best Variety Poems

They set aside views sometimes avoiding conflict real.
Voicing their concerns to no-one that matters truly,
Ones that stir the pot, while time is what they steal,
These voices in shadows sustain all that’s unruly.
Riding the severity, ripping others minds cruelly.
They have no servitude, just societies recklessness.

We made a simple particle,
it soon began to fade,
We gave it spin and mass and charge,
much longer now it stayed.

We gave it flavors strange and charm,
and soon we had quark.
Neutrino here, a photon there,
enough to fill the dark....

There was a preacher named Gunn
Who kept all the ladies on the run.
He caught quite a few
And first thing he knew
The pews were full of sons of Gunn....

Some eyes are blue;
Some eyes are brown.
Variety makes 
The world around.

Some hair is black, 
Some hair is white,
One day is made up
Of darkness and light

Skin colors differ,
It must be said,
But one thing is true:
All blood is red....

Civilizations used white to mitigate the lack of black.
Black is not just skin color but also a human spirit. 
Imagine indigenous people having red skin plaque!!
While things seem disastrous, it is just painted on it.

Civility will be total only If all races are treated fairly.
Thus,...

How many stupid do you need?
We’ve an entire variety of breed.

All of them are highly qualified.
In all absurd they’re specialized.

You can get from them only criticism.
Or else rules and manners of modernism.

Well trained in tackling the flock.
And in handling the situation after giving the shock.

Alas,...

From time to time
I look at my lawn
Which makes me yawn
So I try to design

By expanding the mind
To get in sync
As I try to think
Of landscaping rhymes

I plant a hedgerow
For all to see
Poetic esprit
With creative tempo

Then in go some flowers
Of which nothing’s sweeter
Than blossoming meter
That...

My  wife wish variety in a bed,
And I never argue with her  at all.
She sleeping now by the wall,
But for me -the edge not so bad?...

We need a change in society
I'm seeing Heartbreak, backstabbing, Violence and Betrayal
People are full of hate, Drama, and don't know how to be faithful
We're dealing with pain in variety

New day, new tragedy, sadly that's how it goes
Terrorists setting off bombs at crowded shows
We idolize celebrities...

When the face of satan flickers
Across your heart and soul
Bishops, priests and vicars
Will show their sacred role

Their aim to help society
By teaching wrong from right
This variety of piety
Will keep you in the light...

when I think of her
no one dish comes to mind
for she's a wide variety of delicious treats
something to satisfy my hunger
I always find

In the morning she's soft and sweet
as buttermilk pancakes
with maple syrup on the side
an aroma so enticing 
my smile I cannot hide

romance fills...

Limericks inspired by Linda Fowler’s Limerick -  Hindsight

Pot-poetry

We've had many laughs in PoetrySoup
That lift weary hearts when they start to droop
Laughters a freebie
A sure guarantee
Sup from the soup and enjoy a good whoop. 

Laughters infectious, it flows oversea
Different nations writing poetry
Yet all in one...

It's a taken, never a given--
It's spice? Variety ecstasy driven.
One at a time, for me that works best,
Though often I'll think of the last or the next.
One at a time, so get in her line--
You'll be glad that you did, at least for a time.
Smile...

the tide like clockwork rushes in
reeling in summertime memories and such
joy comes in all shapes and sizes
